Eagerly Awaiting...

I cant wait for this new version to come out! It has to happen soon. Can you suggest a date if possible?

Really want to be able to mess about with my island at school, and will it be possible to run 2 islands without needing a regi.dat file? It was annoying going through the whole process...

you wont have an isle, unless your willing to play.

even then it will be a World, which mos likely wont be connected to the Worlds system, unless your lucky.
im testing and mit wont even give me one for testing purposes

Why do you get to test? I signed up for it...

Thats incredibly unfair...

i'd have to guess a reason that toms testing and not you is that he's been active and around more often then you have been in the past few months

well someones got to, and not everyone can, or everyone would complain saying "theres all these bugs blah blah blah"

if everyone was "testing" it wouldn't be a closed beta

Tom · Post by **Tom** » Tue Mar 09, 2004 8:54 pm

would be "beta"

besides eph.... theres not alot to do, wait around till the monkey, i mean mit, points u where to go, or one of his hench men like hedge fooli or zar, but fooli's mostly in small so he doesnt much, and zar's kinda hands on same with hedge but hedge likes to order us around...

I am very excited about the new version comming out. Is there any expected release date? Are islands going to interact with eachother? If the answers to these questions are posted elsewhere I appologise.

sometime this spring it looks like.

a lot of details on the new version can be found in the pre release notes:

http://gameislands.net/doc01.html

between that and the screenshots you can probably get the general idea

i think zar is releasing about 100 screenshots on his site in the near future. when he does that i'll also publish a link to a staff gallery page, mostly of shots i'd taken but also a few from other folks with access to the new beta.
